My daughter refused to watch Star Wars on TV because the sight of Darth Vader was too scary. But she LOVED having me tell her the story (plot) in parts every night while I brushed her teeth. She got distracted from what I was doing and I got her teeth brushed with no interruptions (except an occasional question).
This of course is the orginal Luke Skywalker meets Han Solo and Princess Leia - a New Hope - Star Wars. I wouldn't let my daughter anywhere near the new Star Wars stories -- much too scary!
I think I got through the entire A New Hope and half of Empire Strikes Back before the whole process exhausted me and I made her start brushing her own teeth. But as it was over a year ago, I may have made it all the way through Return of the Jedi. I can't remember.
